Given the XML:

 <c id="12"/>

 <c id="14"/>

And XSLT of:

<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0" xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">
 <xsl:output encoding="ascii" omit-xml-declaration="yes" indent="yes"/>
 <xsl:strip-space elements="*"/>
<xsl:param name="param-id" select="/a/b/c[1]/@id"/>

I get the results below when I change your stylesheet to only select one "c" element (i.e. select="/a[1]/b[1]/c[1]/@id"). Your original selection chooses the first "c" element of ALL "b" elements of ALL "a" elements (even though a well formed document will only have one "a" element, it may have unlimited "b" elements). I don't know what it's doing from there, but I got the expected result when I added the "indices".

   param-id: 3<br />
   prev: <br />
   next: 4<br />
